The first midweek fixtures of the 2015/16 Ghana Premier League (GPL), will see Dreams FC host Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the Theatre of Dreams on Wednesday.
Asante Kotoko seem to be a side who have recovered from the early season ghost which haunted them and led to the sacking of David Duncan.
The Porcupine Warriors have won their two post Duncan games in all competitions, scoring five goals and conceding only one.
Dreams FC on the other hand are buoyed by their victory on Match-Day Seven over defending champions AshantiGold at the Obuasi Len Stadium and their overall performance so far this season, has been impressive as they lie third on the league log with 14 points.
The two sides have never met in Ghana’s football history.
The presence of Michael Osei on the Kotoko touch line has brought some new lift into Kotoko’s play, and Dreams FC will be wary of the threat the Porcupine Warriors will pose on Wednesday.
Charles Kwebana Akunnor on the other side have led Dreams FC to go above expectations in this, their debut league campaign, and his boys will not be intimidated by the pedigree of Asante Kotoko.
Team News:
Dreams FC have little injury concerns to worried about, and same applies to Kotoko who will have the services of Felix Annan after he made the bench in their 2-0 win over Real 24 Hours in the MTN FA Cup round of 32 fixture in Tumu.
Unless otherwise stated
No player suspended for this tie.
The man in the middle
Ali Alhassan has been appointed by the Referees Selection Committee to oversee affairs on the pitch at the Theatre of Dreams.
